Abstract (en)

[origin: WO9010423A1] A device for removing a bone cement tube surrounding a prosthesis shaft from the bone cavity after removal of the endoprosthesis comprises an ultrasound generator (1) with an essentially cylindrical guide section (2), the free end of which carries the sonotrode (3) which emits the ultrasound. The diameter of the guide section (2) is less than the internal diameter of the bone cement tube (5) and its length is adapted to the length of the prosthesis shaft or of the bone cement tube (5).
